For my personal site, I have a firebase project (using firebase hosting) which is alloted to my apex domain (http://exmaple.com), and I have another firebase project, which I want to allot to a subdomain of the same apex domain (http://subdomain.example.com), but firebase doesn't allow me to do that, any workarounds?
You can now add multiple domains to a single Firebase Hosting site. Domains can either serve site content or redirect to another domain (editable at any time). In addition, you can now use subdomains of the same registered domain on different projects, such as example.com on one project and blog.example.com on another. Visit your hosting admin page to configure them.
"This is currently a limitation of how custom domains work on Firebase Hosting. We're exploring ways to improve and make it possible to reuse the same apex domain across multiple sites, but we don't yet have anything concrete to announce at this time."

I developed a next.js app where everyone can design his own profile page.
Today, everyone using a unique sub-domain like jake.app-name.com and ben.app-name.com.
I want to give everyone the option to connect his own domain to point to his profile page like jake.com.
I know how to manage it on the server after the domain is pointing to the server.
My question is how can I connect, using code (API) many domains to my google app engine without any limitation in the future? What is required? Google will manage all the SSL certificates automatically? I will have an additional cost?
Thank you.
I haven't looked into this in 2021 but as of last year this was not possible. You have to manually map each unique domain to one of your subdomains.
Regarding SSL certificates, note the following from Google
....If you are using subdomains, there is a limit of 20 managed certificates per week for each base domain. ..
Hi Google Cloud experts,
I want to use my custom domain www.example.com in App engine custom domain.I purchase domain from GoDaddy.
How can i do it.
App Engine indeed supports the use of custom domains. I would recommend you to take a look at the documentation Adding a custom domain for your application.
On this tutorial, you will find all the information and steps needed for you to use your custom domain with App Engine.
Besides that, you can even use subdomains and wildcards, in case you want to use a range of domains or a list of domains, that you can redirect them to your application.
In addition, I would recommend you to take a look at the documentation Secure your custom domains with SSL, so you can find security information to implement on your application, once you are using your own domain.
Let me know if the information helped you!
Once you have purchased domain through Godaddy, you just need to point your domain to your hosting provider name server.
My school offers free hosting on their servers, but it appears as a site under their directory -- for example, cs.swarthmore.edu/my_name. I would like to use the hosting, but I want the site url to be of one of my domains. Is that possible or should I shell out for hosting?
You can't use that hosting for hosting any of your domains because that hosting is just for their domains or for a particular directory. You just can do one thing if you don't have to pay for hosting which is you can iFrame or redirect visitors from you domain to your school's site. So that the visitors can just visit your site and get the data from your school's server.
I like the idea of using Azure to host a Wordpress Blog.
I currently have an Azure Website that I'd like to add a blog to. Ideally I can create another website for the blog, and then have blog.mysite.com always show the contents of myblog.azurewebsites.net. Would this be possible?
I can have my domain registrar forward/mask from blog.mysite.com, but if there's a way to do it without masking, any info on getting that done would be awesome.
When you create a web site, Windows Azure provides a friendly
subdomain on the azurewebsites.net domain so your users can access
your web site using a URL like http://.azurewebsites.net.
However, if you configure your web sites for Shared or Standard mode,
you can map your web site to your own domain name.

I've looked at all related posts in MSDN and stack overflow but still having difficulty finding a solution.
I am looking to map a domain and all sub-domains to my windows azure website. It is a reserved website instance. I am using Amazon Route 53 DNS manager and have mapped a wildcard CNAME to my azure sub domain, and created a redirect on the naked domain to the www. subdomain.
When I navigate to the naked root, the redirect kicks in and I'm brought to www..com, where I receive a 404 error from azure.
I know the wildcard CNAME is working. I've verified using MXToolbox. If I go to "Manage Domains" in the Azure web UI admin system, I can manually add "www..com" or any other subdomain (e.g. "helloworld..com"). Azure verifies it fine and after saving, I can pull up the website fine by navigating to that subdomain and my azure website loads.
Is there any way to add wild card subdomains without having to verify each one manually through the azure ui interface? My application is a SaaS that relies on custom user sub-domains to serve up their branded website and gain access to their account so I need any and all subdomains to map to my application.
Currently, wildcard domains are not supported as far as I know. At least on Windows Azure Web Sites. They are on the roadmap, but currently you'll have to rely on adding every domain manually.
See wildcard comment on "Configuring a custom domain name for a Windows Azure web site".
Another feature not yet available on Azure Web Sites is SSL using a vanity (your own) domain name. If you want full control of your site(s) you can use Azure Cloud Services instead of Web Sites. With Cloud Services you can provision certificates, domain names, and run multiple sites on the same instances using host header routing.
Anything you can do with IIS Management you can do with a cloud service.
You're a little closer to the metal compared to Azure Web Sites (but not as close as with a VM) and you get load balancing, scaling, caching, and other goodness. Visual Studio 2010/2012 has excellent deployment tooling. You will need to study up on Azure deployment projects from VS, bit it's not bad.
